DashT - Race, Engine/Energy, Signal K, Database, Line Graphs

Enhanced replacement of Dashboard and Tactics plug-ins for OpenCPN v5.2 or greater. All Dashboard and Tactics instruments are included within the same plug-in, no need to swap. The combination of network connectivity processing threads, enhanced Tactics originated numerical algorithms and the usage of latest web-development techniques allow DashT to provide, in addition these great functions:

• Tactics instruments and regatta/race processor has been improved, follow the link for details. To mention a few improvements:
• Average Wind Instrument has a background thread which distributes the same information to all other instruments, such as the below Race assistant instruments. For that purpose it provides a short term and long term integration of the average wind, making it more suitable for different race configurations.The instrument itself has been modified accordingly:
• 
• A new Tactics instrument which may interest also cruisers is the registering odometer (i.e. an odograph) which has also two independent trip counters, one of which is persistent.
• 
• Race Start Line training assistance with Zero Burn, laylines, marker dropping, favoured marker indicator, etc.

• 
• Race Mark - your training assistance for windward/leeward races with ladder rungs, decision assistance for lifts/headers and a peek to next legs
• 
• Rolling back every single detail of your race or training data or even long term cruising collected into InfluxDB v2.0 time series database - comes with helper scripts!
• 
• Visualisation of any collected data parameter underway either with a built in line graphs or by using external Grafana dashboard
• 
• Signal K data delta channel connector - by-passing OpenCPN (using different channel) - both for NMEA-0183 and NMEA-2000 originated data
• Ad infini creation of dials or numerical data instruments for Engine and Energy Data originating from NMEA-2000 data bus
